Embarking on a new career can be exciting, but also a bit daunting. Our leaders can help you adjust in a supportive environment, with plenty of opportunities to learn and develop. Our most senior managers started in our most junior roles, but with enthusiasm they gained experience, and through both they reached the top.
"Straight from school I ended up at Farmers Northlands as a General Sales Person working one day a week. I progressed to a full time role, and within four years worked my way through the different tiers of management. There are plenty of avenues you can explore. There are so many opportunities. You can travel the length and breadth of the company."Ivan Pope |

"When I left school I started part-time with Farmers. I've just been able to advance my career with every store I've been to and every position that I’ve been in. I like that Farmers is supportive of your career and helping you. If you have the motivation to advance the opportunities are there to do so."Lesley Cowan |

"I started with Farmers five years ago as a merchandiser just after finishing at high school. I’m now the Cosmetics Sales Manager for St Lukes. I can’t believe what I’ve been able to achieve in such a short period of time. Farmers has given me training, support and encouragement to achieve my goals."Elizabeth Stayner |
